    Slate article

    I am a big fan of the book Sex at Dawn, and also use it in my show. (which I am going to link to now, because, damn it, it's about polyamory! http://tinyurl.com/LUSTANDMARRIAGE) For me, learning the scientific basis of the desire to have more than one sexual partner helped me feel a lot better...

    Greetings from Portland!

    Greetings from Portland!

    Hey all - I'm from Portland, OR, and am delighted to find this site. My husband and I have been in an open relationship for 8 years (married for 3) and poly for the last few. (I make the distinction between open and poly being that for many years I didn't want him to "fall in love"). I've...
